I added an item to my cart and the promotion offered was the $30 credit, I then just did a search for the amazon rewards visa on amazon and it gave me an application that offered $50. I also noticed on my main page that on the right column about half way down the screen there was an offer for $50.

I do use amazon all the time and am an amazon prime member, so It is reasonably worth it to apply and get the $50. Yay, free big box of diapers. I was offered a $5k line of credit.

As an added note, it automatically sets the card as the preferred method of payment on amazon which is fine. I will probably file away the card and only use it on amazon purchases.

As a reminder, Citi Forward is 5 ThankYou points for every dollar at bookstores (including Amazon) and restaurants. Ends up equating to something like $3.45 per dollar spent if you choose the statement credit option - it may be worth it if you shop at Amazon a lot (no $50 bonus though, only 1000 points for signing up for paperless billing and 100 per month for paying bill on time).

Thanks. Says "Promotion valid from March 1, 2013 through March 31, 2013" For a second I thought Discover gave the free shipping year round and that I didn't have to worry about Amazon Prime anymore as my free Prime will expire in July.

Oh my... Open another line of credit for a 50 dollar off purchase? I pay 79$ for Amazon prime yearly and spend a lot there, but this would not be a sufficient incentive for me to carry yet another card. Sorry.

do not get this card for the points. get the citi forward which is probably my most used card. 5% back on restaurants and bookstores (all of Amazon included). Cash out via mortgage loan or student loan rebate to get 1 pts = $0.01 rate.

5x is great, but the T&C clearly state that you must be a college student to obtain this card, and you have to provide your college info on the application. Many of us are not college students.

I buy tons on Amazon so this card was a no brainer. Also, for anyone that ends up using the card, don't use the points to buy on Amazon. Get the cash back (same exchange rate) so you can then use that cash to get more points.

Lol. I am not bashing all credit (my credit score is very high), but its people who sign up for all these different offers- macys sears gas etc that i end up reading about with missing payments, saddled in debt.

I guess if you are in that financially responsible group that can keep tabs, then this is good. But for me, a 50 dollar credit is chump change. When i signed up for a credit card, i got 50000 points. Now thats worth it.
